RT @SenJeffMerkley: I held hope for fairness on a 5-4 court, even though we often didn’t get it. But a packed court, tilted 6-3 for the pow… — PolitiTweet.org

Mike Crapo says the Senate followed precedent four years ago. This is wrong. It was the first time in American history that the Senate refused to debate or vote on a SCOTUS nominee. It was the first time a seat was stolen from a President in a purely partisan power play. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Ben Sasse asks, “What is court packing?” Answer: Republicans breaking all precedents in order to completely bias the Supreme Court to produce a legislative outcome—the destruction of healthcare for millions of Americans—that they couldn’t win in Congress. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
At this moment, Rs are all about turning the Supreme Court into a super-legislature for the powerful. For the wealthy. For the privileged. This is all about creating a politicized court to destroy government “of, by, and for the people.” — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
You may wonder why this hearing is moving forward today despite a COVID outbreak. Here’s a big part of the answer: Republicans see this vacancy as their last ditch effort to overturn the ACA and take away YOUR protections for preexisting conditions. That’s #WhatsAtStake. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Dark money groups are pumping in millions to ensure Barrett’s confirmation. The privileged & powerful know this is the chance to tilt the courts in their favor for years to come. Americans deserve to know the truth about who is pushing this nominee forward https://t.co/i2TG7xuIfT — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
The ACA included historic new anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ patients across the country. On #NationalComingOutDay, we must work to ensure these protections aren’t dismantled. Those out today and those coming out tomorrow deserve nothing less. https://t.co/Gb09X1BBrL — PolitiTweet.org

The intentional infliction of harm on children was the monstrous policy of this administration. We saw it in the memo from 2017 where they laid out child snatching as a deterrent strategy. This report shows that complicity went all the way to the top. https://t.co/PGNxMt61Md — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
With unrelenting attacks on the progress we’ve made, it’s critical that we come together to stand up for the LGBTQ community so we keep moving forward, not back. I’ll continue fighting to pass the Equality Act & fighting against every threat to LGBTQ rights from the Trump admin. https://t.co/JPCDvJ0K34 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Voter intimidation is voter suppression. Donald Trump doesn’t want you to vote because he’s losing. It’s on all of us to exercise our right to vote and mobilize our friends, family, and neighbors—we can’t let voter suppression win. https://t.co/CIdz78o00A — PolitiTweet.org

A thank you to Erik and all the workers who have helped Oregonians make it through an unprecedented year. Public servants and those who devote themselves to helping others make our lives possible and deserve our gratitude. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans are pushing an illegitimate process to strip away the rights of the LGBTQ+ community. Our response must be clear: NO to Barrett. Passage of the Equality Act. An end to LGBTQ+ discrimination in America. https://t.co/gy4B66nthP — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Donald Trump exploited tax loopholes (maybe legally, maybe not) and paid almost nothing in taxes. People who teach, fight fires, nurse, or build cars pay their taxes. But someone who puts his name on golf courses and ties made in China doesn’t? In what world does that make sense? — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Barr is teeing up the DOJ to intervene in our election by politically-motivated prosecutions – and furthering the president’s corrupt politics & efforts to delegitimize our elections. We must vote this fall like or democracy depends on it. https://t.co/lftqUPVu4b — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
It’s “unlikely” because McConnell continues to oppose helping American families and businesses, as he has since the House first passed the HEROES Act in May. This is not fate, it’s a choice. https://t.co/T6Kyctd6h7 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
They know forcing women into back-alley, dangerous abortions and taking away birth-control is incredibly unpopular, so they’re trying to hide her record. But make no mistake: That’s the agenda. https://t.co/xRkmj7pmxK — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Trump has failed to #ProtectEssentialWorkers by providing them with proper PPE. Now environmental groups and labor unions are teaming up to protect Americans. They’re going to court to force the administration to take the steps we desperately need. https://t.co/PlOSR9Ku3z — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Delaying this study benefits fossil fuel companies and places their profits over our future. The public deserves to know the damage that oil drilling in Alaska would do to some of America’s most precious natural treasures. https://t.co/AhOAYX8emy — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
I stand with @OregonNurses at @goodshcs who are demanding a safe workplace. Nurses, and all health care heroes, deserve to know if they’ve been exposed to COVID-19 as they risk their lives caring for our loved ones. https://t.co/BRr2S7Oc0d — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
The FBI has confirmed time and again that white supremacists pose the greatest domestic threat. Instead of condemning this threat, the president has fueled it, again & again. The violent extremist white supremacists take his words as an endorsement, which is all you need to know. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
700,000+ Oregonians were already “uninsurable” prior to the ACA. That discrimination is now outlawed. But Trump’s war on health care—& now his SCOTUS nominee—are threatening to send us back. For our kids, for our neighbors & for ourselves: We can’t let that happen. #WhatsAtStake — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
If the Supreme Court strikes down the ACA, 1.7+ million Oregonians with preexisting conditions will face higher costs & fewer benefits, if they can get coverage at all. These are the very real stakes around the Barrett nomination & GOP’s attacks on our health care. #WhatsAtStake — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
The headline says “Washington,” but let’s be clear. @HouseDemocrats have passed multiple relief packages and @SenateDems are on board. @SenateMajLdr has refused to take up the bills. And @realDonaldTrump walked away completely from relief this week. https://t.co/muUpbE846y — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
I’m not surprised that Trump is afraid to debate again given how disastrously he did last time. And I’m not surprised that he would sacrifice the health of his staff, supporters, media, and law enforcement for his own selfish ends. But it’s no less shameful for being predictable. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Since the ACA passed, Trump & GOP have never proposed a plan to protect preexisting conditions, expand access, or lower costs for Americans who actually need medical care. Now they’re ramming through an avowed ACA opponent to the Supreme Court. It’s a war on your health care. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
My bill would ensure workers still have access to affordable care if they lose their jobs in this crisis. We need simple, seamless health care for everyone, and the least we can do until we get there is stop people from losing the care they already have. https://t.co/FkOZiIf86p — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Even before the wildfires, many Oregon communities were struggling to get by. As we invest in our recovery, we must ensure that Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities are not yet again left behind. When we move forward, we must do it together. https://t.co/3Cxif1G6Ey — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
I’ve been fighting for a utility moratorium to keep working families from being crushed by these bills. McConnell has held our Senate captive and kept the American people from getting the relief they need. We can’t allow this to go on any longer. https://t.co/NpoDFV2BjV — PolitiTweet.org

This is what a leadership failure looks like. https://t.co/m3l3twQoha — PolitiTweet.org
